Metades, rotina e entrevista.

Outubro ja ta pela metade. O semestre ja ta pela metade. Meu curso na faculdade ja ta pela metade. Tantas metades....

Enfim, ultimamente minha vida anda meio pacata, meio tranquila. Academia 3/4 vezes por semana. Aulas, aulas e mais aulas. Testes. Provas. Trabalhos. Projetos. Amigos. Cervejas. Cafeteria. É isso. 

O campus é otimo, super grande e cheio de gente. Eu to me adaptando bem, conhecendo gente nova e passeando por ai. O clima ja ta esfriando, e aquela vontade de ver filme de baixo das cobertas vai aumentando. 


Eu hoje tenho uma entrevista. Uma SUPER entrevista pro Wolf Center of Entrepreneurship, que se eu entrar vai ser um accomplishment sem tamanho! Eles só aceitam 35 alunos por ano, e eu to cruzando os dedos pra eles gostarem de mim hahaha. 

Wish me luck :)

Good listeners

So the question is: are you listening, or just waiting to speak?

Summer in Italy?

As the days go by and the weeks come to an end, I can't help but notice that it will be over in a blink of an eye. My semester, my year, my college life. I am excited about it, but it's also a little scary. 

I have been thinking a lot about combining traveling with something productive (studying or working or having an internship) and I heard about this opportunity with AIESEC that I might be able to spend some time in Italy this summer, either volunteering or working on an internship. This makes me reeeeeally excited actually. I could choose any country, but Italy just sounds like..... sounds like the place to go. And who doesn't want to learn Italian? 


Oh boy, I found an expensive hobby huh?

Football game

I also went to my very first football game - The Bayou Bucket, UH vs. Rice. We won 31-26 :) Everyone wearing red is rooting for us, and everyone in blue is rooting for Rice. No need to say anything else, huh? Go Coogs! 



UH

I have now been at school for one month. Things are going..... fast. Tests, quizzes, meetings, it's like I am juggling with 20 different balls and I can't stop or I will drop one. But I am loving every minute of it.

Right now I am applying to the Entrepreneurship program, and hopefully I will get in. UH has just been rated as the 2nd best Entrepreneurship program in the nation. How incredible is that?  In the process of applying, I have been reliving all my exchange experiences. I have been writing about why I am so passionate about traveling, and how much it has changed me. 

I guess it always comes down to it: change.

Nova etapa



Ontem foi o primeiro dia de uma nova etapa na minha vida: minha vida na Universidade de Houston.  São 8 mil alunos morando no campus (eu sou um desses alunos), 40 mil alunos ao todo, e um campus de 670 acres. É, é grande.

 Meu quarto ja ta criando jeitinho de Annah. Aos poucos vai indo :)
